Not Work Safe .

I'm guessing the Marine Corps doesn't do this anymore, but when we hit the racks at night in bootcamp the last words out of our mouths were "God Bless Chesty, wherever he is."

My pops was a drill at Ft. Dix, where I was hatched. He told of stories of basic during the Nam Era and how wild shit was for the Army.

I bet shit for the Corps was fucking crazy back then?

Here's one for you:

The DI's weren't permitted to hit a problem recruit. But they got around that pesky regulation by lining everybody up in front of their racks, at attention. Then the Senior DI would walk up the squad bay and give everybody, one-by-one, a punch in the stomach. If you were a squared-away private, you got a powder-puff hit that hardly hurt at all. But when he got to the fuck-ups, BAM!

The logic was, according to the SDI, "If one of you maggots reported me for hitting you, I'd be in trouble. But if all or you reported me hitting you, nobody'd believe it." :ROFLMAO:

Holy mackerel!!!
 
This guy was once part of the West Point Superintendent's staff. I knew him primarily as a cook but I'm sure he had other responsibilities as well. I only met him a couple of times but I distinctly remember how big his arms were.

I also saw him out running on post one day. Not just jogging, a full-out sprint. WAY faster than I would have expected someone that big to be able to move.

this pic popped up in my FB feed this morning and reminded me of him.

Good old swolesome himself! Didn't know he had time at West Point, but not at all suprised.

I met Chef Rush when I competed in the Joint Culinary Training Exercise at Ft. Lee after I got back from deployment. He wasn't an offical judge from what I remember, but he bounced around and talked with/provided guidance to all of the competitors, especially the younger ones.

I had less than 3 years in at that point, so learning I could be an enlisted aide, cook on a plane, work at the Pentagon, join the Culinary Olympics team, or (like Rush) work for the President was mind blowing.

He also gave me a high five (for being "smart as shit" on getting a bunch of culinary questions right) that I swear almost tore my shoulder out of socket 😅
